I like rewarding teams with the most consistency over a season - this is how football leagues always work. Wasn't there talk about getting rid of them before? Whatever happened to that? @Sonneveld – nice job on the video, I enjoyed it very much :-)

I never liked the play offs. It's rubbish! Kevin is right…team start to calculate their chances. I never liked the play offs. It’s rubbish!

Ever since i made this list once, just started watching and following different defenders a bit more. But you could say I feel, you need to put down a solid centre, you can build from there with attacking backs, and more free roles upfront. I can enjoy a spectacular tackle or a good block, like the ones Boulah made in the EC. But mostly i'm a one-touch fast football fan, Arsenal, 2006 CL winning Barca squad and of football like the lightning fast counters oranje had against Italy and France. BTW @ finnster, V.Basten didn't change at all, Ajax now is just as inconsistent as oranje was under VB. He still makes the same mistakes. those 3, yes, defenitaly, but I’m not too much of a defender fan :) , just think it’s interesting to follow some internationals and give others some sight into talents, surprises in eredivisie since the overall opinion about our defenders is negative.

This one is very hard to swallow. Van Basten yet again showing his managerial skills (that is lack of) when it counts the most. Why do the Stekel thing just when the only thing left to really realistically play for is the UEFA Cup? There was no need for that nonsense. All that did was introduce insecurity in the back four and look what happened. I can't believe he actually did that at this juncture. MVB is just not up for it. Doesn't cut it. I put all the blame on him. Just watch, he'll be gone in a year or so. Ajax beat by a French team with a Belgian coach.

Teams stop playing after 3/4 season because they know that they gonna play playoff. Recently the 2nd didn't get the ticket to CL but the number 3,4,5(which is worse than number 2) will get it because they have luck in the playoff and then they will throw it away after the qualification game. Now what we are seeing is that no Dutch team in the CL and UEFA cup any more. I think all the playoff is damaging the Dutch league.
